Internet Gaming Revenue Comparisons
Global Internet Gaming Status
•

•
Offshore internet gambling organizations are fighting to
‘protect their ability’ to gamble online.
In some markets, offshore gambling organizations are
challenging traditional national government regulated
gambling organizations for the right to compete for the
online gambling market in Europe
In the United States offshore sites are targets of an
accelerated gambling crackdown.
In Canada federal and provincial governments can
choose to regulate, legally oppose or compete with
offshore internet sites
